Wear suitable protective clothing such as sturdy
shoes with non-slip sole, robust long trousers,
gloves, safety glasses and hearing protection! Do
not wear loose clothing or jewels. Hear, clothing and
gloves must be out of reach of moving parts as they
could get caught by the rotating parts. Do not use
the appliance when barefooted or in open sandals.
In the event of a blockage, switch off the machine
immediately. Disconnect the power plug and remo-
ve the jammed piece of wood.
Mains Connection
WARNING! Electric shock! There is a risk of
an injury caused by electric shock!
Operation is only allowed with a safety
switch against stray current (RCD max. stray
current of 30mA).
Check the voltage. Technical data given on the type
label must correspond with electric network voltage.
Insert the plug of the electrical cable in a socket of
suitable shape, voltage and frequency complying
with current regulations.
Only for 400 volt machines: It is essential to respect
the engine rotation direction (see the arrow on the
engine) as operation in wrong direction would da-
mage the oil pump. Warranty claims cannot apply in
such a case. Change the rotation direction by turning
the connector polarity if necessary.
Pursuant to the provisions of „CE" professional
associations, etc., all splitters are fitted with an
undervoltage release in the switch. This will prevent
accidental repeated starting in case of current inter-
ruption due to power failure, accidental unplugging,
defective fuse, etc. The machine must necessarily be
turned on again by repeated pressing of the green
switch.
Wilful holding or blocking of the switch, unless being
a neutral, will automatically lead to switch failure.
The warranty will not apply in such a case that must
naturally be checked.
Work preparation
Before putting the machine into operation, working
of the safety guards (two-lever operation system, in
particular) must be checked.
• Put both control levers down and the splitter knife
down, app. 5 cm above the desk.
• One control lever to be released at all times, with
the splitter knife remaining in the selected position.
Carry out a visual inspection before switching the
appliance on.
• Proper function of the on and off button, incl. the
emergency switch.
• Before starting work, check hydraulic lines and
hoses for leaks.
• Check especially the safety equipment, electrical
control elements, power lines and screw couplings
for any damage and if they are tightened appropri-
ately.
The appliance must not be used if damaged or safety
equipment is defective. Replace any worn-out and
damaged parts.
CAUTION! Whenever the machine is to be put into
operation, make sure the splitter desk is firmly and
safely fitted to the machine.
Working area
For safe wood splitting, it is essential that the wor-
king area is flat and slip-resistant and that a sufficient
space for moving is provided. To take the wood
splitter to your home, it is necessary there are no
obstacles in the way, i.e. no risk of tripping. Adequate
lighting of the working area needs to be provided.
When being operated, the machine must stand on a
horizontal and flat surface and the floor around the
machine must be flat, well-maintained and with no
waste, such as sawdust and cuttings.
Operation
1. Pick up unsplit wood from the left attachment
table
2. Put wood on the splitting table
3. Secure the wood with the holding claws.
4. Start splitting process (operate lever)
5. Split the wood once all the way through
6. Place split wood on the right attachment table
7. Split the wood a second time, if necessary
When splitting intergrown wood, trunk sections of
irregular shape, etc., there may be risks of parts being
thrown out, blocked or crushed.
Never reach into the gap area.
Power supply must be interrupted by pressing the
red button on the switch and unplugging the machi-
ne for any repair or servicing work or when leaving
the wood splitter. Turning to the Off position is not
enough to interrupt the power supply.
Handling equipment to be used only when handling
the machine. Make sure the device cannot roll away,
fall over or tip over with suitable fastening devices.
The machine must be secured to the ground with
suitable fasteners. (e.g. ground nails)
The machine may only be used if it is fully assembled.
Operation of a machine that is not fully assembled is
strictly prohibited.
